Visit Holland - The Netherlands
The Kunsthal is a museum in Rotterdam, which opened its doors in 1992. The museum is situated in the Museumpark of Rotterdam next to the Natuurhistorisch Museum Rotterdam, and in the vicinity of the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen.
Entrance to the Kunsthal is from the Westzeedijk. The building was designed by the Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas.
The Kunsthal has no permanent collection, but organises a wide range of temporary exhibits. The large space available 3,300 m2 (36,000 sq ft) allows various exhibits in parallel. Recently the museum had exhibitions featuring artists such as Chuck Close, Andy Warhol and Arne Quinze.
At Kunsthal Rotterdam a small artistic staff organizes somewhat 25 exhibitions yearly, as well as fairs and numerous activities for the public. The programming at the Kunsthal aims at being flexible in order to immediately jump on topical developments and unexpected possibilities. Annually at least two major public exhibitions are made, one exhibition for families with children and one exhibition on a historico-cultural theme. Per annum the Kunsthal draws an audience of on average 200.000 visitors.
